Bambo Nature Eco Nappies // Review and Giveaway

While I cannot claim to be saving the world, I try to do my bit in reducing waste and being more environmentally friendly. My philosophy is that if we all make even small changes, it will have an impact. When Bambo Nature got in touch asking if I would like to try their eco disposable nappies, I was really intrigued to give them a go; I’ve used washable nappies with both children but have felt guilty at not keeping up with it and instead piling regular disposables into landfill. Could these be the solution?

Eco Nappies

Bambo Nature have been creating ethical and sustainable children’s products for over 25 years, and their nappies, training pants, and wipes don’t contain any nasty chemicals or allergens, so are super soft and kind to your child’s skin, while still being incredibly efficient at doing their jobs!

According to their website:

The Fluff used in Bambo Nature nappies is also environmentally friendly and comes from sustainable forestry, where more trees are planted than felled. And if that’s not enough, 95% of all production waste at our factory in Denmark is recycled. With Bambo Nature nappies you can be reassured that you are choosing a product that is not only good for your baby, but it is also good for the environment too.

Martha is a very active 23-month-old, and also quite a heavy wetter, so if anyone could put these nappies through their paces it’s her! They have a cute design on which Martha likes, and they’re a really good fit with loads of flexibility for her wriggling around without causing leaks. We did have some leaks overnight, but when I switched back to our previous brand to compare, she leaked through those too, so she’s now in size 5 overnight and it was just annoying timing on her part!

Our little lady is also teething at the moment, which means some quite icky poosplosions; the Bambo Nature nappies have managed to contain these really well, and the wipes have cleaned her up without causing any irritation. This is actually the first time she’s been teething and hasn’t had horrendous nappy rash.

We are really impressed by the Bambo Nature range, and it’s nice to throw nappies away without feeling horrifically guilty about the impact on the environment, which I have been for a long time now. From now on we will buy the size 5 nappies, which I think should keep her going until she potty trains now *sob* Our baby is growing up so fast!

I’m a Grandma now but back in the day we used to meet at each others houses for a coffee and do a clothes swap, to be honest this was more to save money back then but nowadays it would also be seen as eco friendly.

We tried so hard with fluffy bums and reusable wipes with our second but we just couldn’t get on with them at all! Now we try and find nappies that don’t take as long to break down and we use reusable everything else when we can xx

You can easily go eco with the ‘old-fashioned’ approach. Stock up on bicarbonate of soda (great for soaking up smells, too), lemon (it will make your sink sparkle) and white vinegar. All you need then is an environmentally friendly cloth and tea tree oil (it’s anti-bacterial). Just add half a cup of bicarb to a bowl of warm water, dip in the e-cloth and wipe most surfaces. For cleaning the loo, put a couple of drops of tea tree oil on the surface and clean with another e-cloth (keep separate cloths for toilets, obviously).
